Advanced Concepts in Fuzzy Logic and Systems with Membership Uncertainty
This book generalizes fuzzy logic systems for different types of uncertainty, including- semantic ambiguity resulting from limited perception or lack of knowledge about exact membership functions- lack of attributes or granularity arising from discretizat

Preface
It is well known that fuzzy sets can describe gradual properties, such as young or big, using functions for membership to sets. Fuzzy sets of type-2 are equipped with fuzzy membership functions, and hence are called fuzzyvalued fuzzy sets. Whilst fuzzy sets are used to model vagueness, fuzzy-valued fuzzy sets have the capacity to model the imprecision of the actual membership function. Both, vagueness and imprecision are intrinsic aspects of any engineering design. This book summarizes achievements of the author in type-2 fuzzy set theory, reasoning using rough approximations of fuzzy sets, and construction of fuzzy logic sy
